All Nippon Airways is introducing free, high-speed in-flight internet service capable of video streaming1 for all international classes on its B767-300ER (202-seat configuration, JA625A) aircraft. Powered by the latest system from Viasat, the advanced service ensures passengers enjoy smooth, fast connectivity from boarding to disembarkation, providing a ground-like internet experience in the air.

Tomoji Ishii, Executive Vice President, Customer Experience of ANA commented: "The integration of Viasat's Wi-Fi equipment enables the B767-300ER aircraft to offer a seamless and stay connected internet experience, mirroring ground-level performance. ANA is committed to strengthening its in-flight connectivity and will continue delivering future improvements to enhance customer convenience."

Mark Dankberg, Chairman & CEO, Viasat, stated: "As ANA's passengers increasingly value staying connected in-flight with high-speed Wi-Fi, especially on international routes, we are honored to support ANA in offering free, streaming in-flight internet on Viasat-equipped aircraft. ANA has selected our next generation Viasat Amara solution, which combines proven technology and capabilities with a robust innovation roadmap designed to service ANA today and well into the future."

ANA is strategically phasing in the service, aiming to complete modifications on three B767-300ER aircraft by the end of fiscal year (FY) 2025. By FY 2026, the airline plans to extend the high-speed Wi-Fi access across all six B767-300ER aircraft. ANA will also integrate Viasat's system into additional new international aircraft after FY 2026, progressively expanding the free, all-class service across its fleet.

Aircraft Scheduled to Offer Viasat In-Flight Internet Service:

ANA plans to upgrade additional aircraft and aims to provide free high-speed in-flight internet for all classes on more than 80% of its international fleet by the end of 2030.
